ABOUT THE JOB:
A problem isn’t truly solved until it’s solved for all. That’s why Googlers
build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the
street or across the globe. As a Technical Program Manager at Google, you’ll use
your technical expertise to lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start
to finish. You’ll work with stakeholders to plan requirements, identify risks,
manage project schedules, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners
across the company. You're equally comfortable explaining your team's analyses
and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical tradeoffs
in product development with engineers.
We are seeking an executive-level Technical Program Manager for Data Center
Capacity Delivery to oversee hyperscale data center development programs from
site selection through construction, commissioning, and operational handover.
In this role, you will lead multi-gigawatt, multi-billion-dollar infrastructure
portfolios, drive dynamic delivery schedules, manage complex AI/ML technical
insertions, and establish exceptional safety and operational standards across
internal cross-functional teams and external contractor partners.
Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the
Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and
maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google
platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our
engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we
can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have
the best and fastest experience possible.
Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills,
experience, and relevant education or training.
US: $192000 - $278000 (USD) + 20% bonus target + equity + benefits

RESPONSIBILITIES:

maintaining full accountability for schedule, cost, quality, and risk
management across active campuses.
* Manage high-density compute capacity deployment, incorporating late-stage
tech insertions for GPU and TPU infrastructure, high-density power systems,
and advanced cooling technologies.
* Align internal cross-functional partners alongside primary GC, EC, and MC
contractors to ensure seamless capacity releases and program execution.
* Establish site culture standards across large contractor workforces to
